Whatever else Harper's Weekly may
or may not have been the fact still re-
mains that it has invariably been sound
on the "Negro Question" and never
loses an opportunity to say something
in behalf Of the down-trodden and on
pressed, and to speak in comuienda-
tory terms of such matters of excellence
as come to it's notice. In the last issue
the following appeared:
NEGRO TROOPS IN THE CIVIL WAR.
At moment when the bitterness of
race prejudice is shown by the recent
school controversies in Kansas, Indiana
and Ohio, reminding us of the old free
States that we cannot consistently re-
proach our brethren Of the old slave
States with the same fault, the publica-
ton by the HARPERs of History of the
Negro Troops in the War of the REBEL
ION, lS61-1865, is most timely tits
written by one of those soldiers, Colo
mel Geo. W, Williams, and it is clear,
comprehensive, and compact statement
of the whole subject-the state of public
feeling, the circumstances of enlistment
and the services in the field of the col
ored troops.
The story is proceeded by view of
their part in the war of the revolution,
and it is an unconcious tribute to the
character of the race. In half of the
country they were held in the worst
form of slavery, and in the other ha If,
although personally free, they were the
victims ola cruel prejudice-a prejudice
so acute that even in the sore extremity
of conflict for national existence there
was the strongest opposition to permit
ing them even to serve in the ranks. But
when the better opinion prevailed and
they were called into the service, at
Fort Wagner and Port Hudson and Fort
Pillow and Olustee, at Petersburg and
and Fort Fisher, and on other noted
fields, their heroism and endurance
were fully tested, and they earned the
same gratitu lie that is accorded to their
white comrades in the national army.
Colonel Williams states that during
the war there were 17S,975 Negro sold
iers enrolled IN the United States vol
unteer army-99,337 by the authority Of
the national government, and ,63S by
the States and Territories; and Of
this number sc, 947 died in the service oil
their country. He tells the story with
natural pride and with glowing pen
as the reader follows the narrative oil
generous devotion and valor he may
well blush with shame at the long wrong
done by the race which prides itself as
superior, to blameless and gentle PEG.

DISGUISED REPUBLICANS.


Ths Nomination of Snyder for Senator
Makes Them Very Tired
This mornings Cleveland Plain Deal

MAssILLoN, o.. Sept. 16.-Leading Re.
publlcans In this city are indignant
at the nomination of T. G. Snyder by the
Senatorial convention Of their party at
Alliance Wednesday. The district com.
posed of Stark and Carroll counties, is
one Of the closest in the State, Carroll
on fair party test being good for 500
Repub ,icsn majority, while In Stark,
with the large uncertain vote of
Alliance, Canton and MassillOn,
the average Democratic majority
ranges from 300 to 500. For thisre
the Republican party managers In the
west end of Stark county Rlmad to SO.
curs the nomination of Glenn Russell of
this city, knowing HIM to be the strong
est m IN for the place. He was entered
as q dark horse solely for the reason
hat he was regarded as the one man
who could carry the district, and be-
cause the wise c0unsels were not heed
I'D there will be 2 sad dearth of enthu-
siasm here for the weak successful as
pirants.
John Mcbride is not alone q power
with the miner and other labor elements
but has scores and hundreds of warm
personal f lends among Republicans,
who will prefer him to the unknown
q lantity set np against him. Record
the prophecy, Mcbride will have good
sized majority In the district.

red shod over the west and south of Scot
land" But the furnace of persecution,
though heated seven fold, only made the
Stewart Kings weaker, for hrmer grew
the hearts ofthe people. Numerous mon
uments over Scotland record names of
martyrs, number of which have seen.
Their memories are preserved in the
hearts of the Scottish people, and their
murderers and prosecutors desecrated.
Let me say before quitti lg this subject
that the Scotch are yet a church going
people. The three leading Presbyterian
bodiesare, the established Kirk, the Free
Church and United Presbyterian, estab-
lished according to statistics, outnumber-
ing both the others and gaining rapidly.
Some years ago patronage was abolished
by act of Parliament, and since that the
ministers are chosen by the member in
each parish as in the other churches.
Ihave been at Largs where Alexander
III hustled back the Norsemen; at Ayr,
where Wallace fought the English, and
at Turnherry near bye where Bruce
fought them. have been through the
Kyles where the Lollards carried about
the forbidden English Bible in James
Tvs days, and where the covenanter in
Charles IFS time, assembledin the fields
with swords in their hands to hear the
word Of God preached in their own Pres
byterian fashion. Robert Burns wrote:
The solemn League and Covenant
Cost Scotland blood, cost Scotland tears,
But IL sealed Freedoms sacred cause
If thou'rt slave, indulge thy sneers.
The first covenant time was about
1910 during Charles rs reign, when that
monarch was paving the way to his own
downfall and execution. "I was present"
says an old chronicler, "at Lanark, and
at several other parishes, when on a
Sabbath. after the forenoon sermon, the
covenant was read and sworn. 1 have
seen more than thousand persons all
at once lifting up their hands, and the
tears falling down from their eyes, az
they entered into covenant with God"
Surely the value of country is mainly
in the character and quality of the peo
pie. A land rich in minerals, in agricul
ture, in manufactures and in commerce
is doubtless we'll The charms too o.
fine and picturesque scenery are quite
enjoyable. But, what are all these worth
if the population have not sterling quail
ties? The people are worthy of study
and consideration for "The proper study
of mankind is man."
The schools and colleges of Scotland
the libraries of the land the untirins
application and earnestness of the peo
Pile, exhibited and displayed in every
field of human effort, are worthy of refer
ence in speaking of Scotland and thu
Scotch. We may refer to Wallace an(
Bruce in the olden time when the strug
gle was for independence. Also to thei
religious movements, embracing thu
right of private judgment and free kirk
Their solemn league and covenant Sc
